Updating gstreamer-plugins

F

Hi everyone,
I'm new to FreeBSD and recently installed 8.1-RELEASE on my PC (i5 - installed 64bit edition). I wanted to stay up to date so I fetched and updated ports tree with portsnap. In UPDATING i found that i should do a portmaster -a to upgrade gtk20 so I fired it up and, I can't update gstreamer-plugins... I'm getting:
Code: 
gmake[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/multimedia/gstreamer-plugins/work/gst-plugins-base-0.10.30/gst-libs/gst/pbutils'
Making all in riff

I hope You could help me with this. I've rebulid the gstreamer, v4l_compat, orc, gir-repository, and gobject-introspection I have python 2.6.6, and.... no idea why it's not working :(
Greetings
 
I have a solution to this problem that has worked for me. I know it is not the correct way, but I managed to finish the build by doing what I did. First, I noticed that the file it was complaining about being version 1.0 was version 1.2 in the work directory of the port. To get it to finish I moved the file from work directory to the desired location.

Here's the steps I did:

1) Backup directory in case I screw up something:
[CMD=""]cp /usr/local/share/gir-1.0 /usr/local/share/gir-1.0.bak[/CMD]

2) Build
Code: 
cd /usr/ports/multimedia/gstreamer-plugins
make install clean

3) *** Failure ***
There will be a complaint about file being wrong version.
Find the file: [CMD=""]find . -name "GstAudio-0.10.gir"[/CMD]
Copy it to /usr/local/share/gir-1.0

4) Repeat steps 2-3 for files the build complains about.

5) After 2 more files, the build should complete. Remove the backup folder created in Step 1 when satisfied.

The proper way would be to get the port to look in its own working directory for including the files, but what I did worked.
 
Please file a PR for this port, or drop the port maintainer a line, will you? This needs to be fixed.
